Rosevill Fair Songtext
von Órla Fallon
Rosevill Fair Songtext
Oh, the night was clear
And the stars were shinin′
And the moon came up so quiet in the sky
All the people gathered 'round
And the band was a-tunin′
I could hear them now
Playin' "Comin' Through The Rye"
You were dressed in blue
And you looked so lovely
Just a gentle flower
Of a small-town girl
You took my hand
And we stepped to the music
With a single smile
You became my world
And we danced all night
To the fiddle and the banjo
Their drifting tunes seemed to fill the air
So long ago, but I still remember
When we fell in love at the Roseville Fair
Now we courted well
And we courted dearly
And we′d rock for hours
In the front porch chair
Then a year went by
From the time that I met you
And I made you mine
At the Roseville Fair
And we danced all night
To the fiddle and the banjo
Their drifting tunes seemed to fill the air
So long ago, but I can still remember
When we fell in love at the Roseville Fair
And here′s a song for all of the lovers
And here's a tune that they can share
May they dance all night
To the fiddle and the banjo
The way we did at the Roseville Fair
May they dance all night
To the fiddle and the banjo
The way we did at the Roseville Fair
And the stars were shinin′
And the moon came up so quiet in the sky
All the people gathered 'round
And the band was a-tunin′
I could hear them now
Playin' "Comin' Through The Rye"
You were dressed in blue
And you looked so lovely
Just a gentle flower
Of a small-town girl
You took my hand
And we stepped to the music
With a single smile
You became my world
And we danced all night
To the fiddle and the banjo
Their drifting tunes seemed to fill the air
So long ago, but I still remember
When we fell in love at the Roseville Fair
Now we courted well
And we courted dearly
And we′d rock for hours
In the front porch chair
Then a year went by
From the time that I met you
And I made you mine
At the Roseville Fair
And we danced all night
To the fiddle and the banjo
Their drifting tunes seemed to fill the air
So long ago, but I can still remember
When we fell in love at the Roseville Fair
And here′s a song for all of the lovers
And here's a tune that they can share
May they dance all night
To the fiddle and the banjo
The way we did at the Roseville Fair
May they dance all night
To the fiddle and the banjo
The way we did at the Roseville Fair
